Tom returns to Banter in Williamsburg, where he is joined by fellow Gooner, friend and writer Aaron Timms (@aarontimms) for a Premier League triple-header: Leicester / Arsenal, Burnley / Man City, and Man United / Chelsea.

And speaking of diminished stature, Aaron offers his assessment on Manchester United's appointment of Ole Gunnar Solskjær as manager (hint: he doesn't rate Ole).

Contrarianism has gone too far, folks.
